There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
i'll try this again,,,,,,WHICH WAS BETTER ?

I like the music from both eras... it's kind of like AC/DC too. You just can't go wrong! :2thumbs:
But if I was buying an album today; I'd go with the guy who can't drive 55!

Let's cut him a break... If it weren't for the British we'd be speaking either Dutch or Spanish; and I have enough trouble with English!
pps: :roflblack:Bruiser....where in UK...?
I spent a few years playing for the US services at the bases just north of London...Lakenheath, Mildenhall and others.
I was a pro musician for many years and came over here in '73 and I still go out as a bassist with the local blues crowd.
Arntyufun has it right except for the "Country" music ref. I was a Les Paul fan. On the ship we used to do the Alabama rock...we weren't a "show" band but were more of a drivin' rock band.
As far as a choice of J or T for Thanksgiving....could I please have both.
We're gonna make some serious noise this year...just bought a nice 30 cal. bolt action rifle to go with my ancient 303 Enfield carbine. My Dragonov only comes out on state occasions.
Yes, fellow Spyder Ryder, you did kick arse but we do give thanks for all this beautiful country did in the years and conflicts later.
Interesting program this AM on the reclamation of a B25 from a lake in western NC.
I do have to say that Roth was OK but my eyes were on the guitarist.

Ok Coz. Gonna hijack here. LOL.
I can't play guitar but guitar makes it for me. I have a LOT of guys I love to hear play. My Two top favs are Stevie Ray and Mark Knofler. When I am in a "mood" Buckethead is pretty good also. I could talk guitar players all day.

Bob,
In 1960 I had my own trio: me on Hammond organ and I played bass on the pedals, guitarist and drummer and we were a quartet when the drummer's girlfriend sang on Fri and Sat nights.
Long story short, after being a jazz guitarist I made my money as a bassplayer.
Ended up over here when "You are the sunshine of my life" went into the charts. Playing bass on the Mardi Gras out of Miami. Joe Cocker, Eric Burden(sp), Blood, Sweat and Tears, early Chicago and a lotta Beatles. My tastes were ELP, Yes, Pink Floyd, Doobies. There wasn't much 'cept the Beach Boys coming out of California and being our audiences were from East of the Miss. you can imagine what we covered. I got off the ship and went on the road with a five piece playing Ohio Players, Average White Band, Donna Summer and all that stuff from the "Disco" era.
I got off the road because of the "Business"....agents and managers and the Union demanding more and more and they doing nothing for it.
The Business was taking over the live music presentation side and good musicians really suffered when crap started to take over the good venues.
I was a mechanical engineer up until two years ago when I was retired. There is very little good music produced these days but there are some tremendous musicians out there.
For bassists, my choices are John Entwistle and Chris Squires, Jaco (Weather Report), Mark (Level 42)....mainly these guys are not afraid of being out front and taking the lead....that's the way I play...no fear.
Not how I ryde though...I and the Beastie are very precious but we do have fun.
Playin' at Biker Bars doesn't hurt either. I got back into playing again after Dearly Beloved passed and have a nice collection of good stuff...Yes I do have a Hammond organ...And a gorgeous Fender Precision 5-string bass, a Carvin long scale 6-string bass, 2 Strats, 1 Tele and 2 British Burns guitars.....and they all get played.
I play around three times a week now on the local Blues Jam "scene". We have some great players around here with all differing styles and you'd be surprised how a bassist can transform the most mundane 12-bar blues into a driving rocker.

"Disco Era"..Don't you mean the "Age of Darkness"?
No doubt that the bass is what holds the song together.
(Ten Years After: "Woodchoppers Ball")
(Free: "All Right Now")
But nothing beats a guy with a good work ethic on guitar! :thumbup:
